So I see. No need to gloat though, I only asked where the rumour had come from and opined that he doesn't look anything like him, and I stand by that! Still, with the right wig and a well-pitched performance... He does have a history of crafting a diverse array of eccentric characters so in that sense it's probably a good fit. We'll see.

I'm not even sure he'd need a wig ... a different hairstyle might be enough. Along with a bit of makeup.

I don't get where that fellow thinks Bradley is a dead wringer for Hartnell. In those park shots he doesn't look a thing like him. Where I come from, that's called, "might be mistaken for the fellow on dark, foggy night by a witness with no corrective lenses and severe myopia."

I dunno, I can see it. The proper hair and clothes will likely help a lot.

For me, the voice is the most important thing. Richard Hurndall in "The Five Doctors" was a pretty good physical match for Hartnell, but I didn't find his voice or his speech cadence similar enough. What worries me is that I don't remember Bradley sounding anything like Hartnell.
